Benfica to win the game

Benfica have come up with some excellent performances over the last few weeks. Even with the Champions League match against Barcelona around the corner, Benfica are unlikely to switch off for this game. The table leaders might have a tough time against Vitoria Guimaraes, who are unbeaten in the last five league outings. In fact, Vitoria Guimaraes have managed to stay unbeaten since the opening day loss.

Total goals over 2.5

Benfica have not exactly made Vitoria Guimaraes run for cover in the recent head-to-head matches against this team. Over the last six meetings between these two teams, Benfica have only come up with seven goals. There is a case for Benfica to be quite wary of picking up any serious injuries with a busy fixture schedule coming up. This may lead to the visitors sitting back for most of the game.

Darwin Nunez to score anytime

Darwin Nunez has been impressive for Benfica over the last few games. The 22-year-old scored six goals in his first season with Benfica. He is already up to 4 goals for the campaign from just four games. This includes goals in back-to-back matches.
